Two new James Berry Bows
« on: January 17, 2014, 12:44:00 PM »
Getting ready to fly to Medicine Lake WA this evening to visit my daughter.  Been talking to James about a new bow (more then likely a Taipan).  After talking to James two days ago I came up with a really good idea and James is going to build it.  I have a 3 1/2 year old grandson that thinks  his Pa Pa is the best and is already showing signs of being an outdorrsman at heart.  So I am going to have James build a dupicate of my bow to my grandson's specs... a bow that looks like Pa Pas and one he can grow into.  I am kind of excited about this and envision him one day holding Pa Pa's old Berry bow and his son using his bow.  Anyway, just thought it was a cool idea to pass along.

Good for you Dave. My grandsons are 10 and 12. Both love archery and spending time with me shooting. You will never regret this decision. I know James will do it proud for you.

James is one of the good guys in the bow building circles. He is great to visit with and the "Taipan" I own shoots like a dream. Anything James produces for you will make you, your daughter, and your grandson proud. God Bless you and yours.   :archer:
